A 500 ialist society Is the only true Anti

This Socialist League Is formed to ad-
vance the fundamental principles Of Social
ism, which are as follows:
The main cause Of all misery, poverty,
vice and crime lies In the artificial environ
ments which surround the individual. The
only way to abolish these Is to change the
environment. This environment consists In
privileges granted 10 control and monop0-
lire natural resources, the tools Of ploduc-
tion, the mediums Of exchange, transporta-
tion and communication by which they have
fastened upon us our iniQuitous wage system.
The way to change this environment Is TO
destroy the lsgallzed power to control all
these things which entails upon industry re-
striction Of the enjoyment Of the fruits Of
production, and holds our lives subject to the
iron Law OF Wages.
They should properly be controlled CO.
speratively BY the workers themselves.

Stand BY The Sabbath.

WILLIAMsPoRT, Oct. 90 At to-
days session of the Presbyterian
Synod of Pennsylvania Rev. d. d.
Harper presented report on the
efforts being made at the present time
to repeal the Sabbath laws. The re.
port after discussion, was adopted
with the following resolutions:
First-We recognize in the Per.
sonal Liberty League new form OF
organized effort for the destruction of
the Sabbath and the enthronement OF
the saloon.
Second The avowed purpose and
defiant speech of this organization
should awaken the solieitude of Chris
tian people and all good citizens and
call for their best efforts to resist its
encroachment
Third-We counsel the people un-
der our care to exert their influence
for the right, to stand by our heritages
of civil and religious freedom.
Fourth-The recent combination
of all Evangelical churches in the
city of New York to resist the efforts
Of this organization, meets our ap'
proval, and we recommend that SINH
lar action be taken in all our large
cities.
Fifth-That attention be called to
this matter from the pulpits and
through the press.

Coal and Gas.

In q speech delivered by Judge Ag.
new in welcoming bankers to their
convention 10 Pittsburg, he said that
there are IA organized natural gas
companies drawing supply from 2lO,.
800 acres of tested territory, and hav,
ing over SIT 900, 600 capital invested
These wells ere delivering SOC, ,000,.
600 cubic feet Of gas per day, and are
capable of yielding one thousand mil
lion feet He estimated the total
capital invested in Western Penn'a
at S25, 100000 and S5,0O0,000 in
Ohio. The amount of coal displaced
by natural gas is daily $4,000 tons
The Judges estimate as to the amount
of coal displaced is probably under
the amount. Persons who live with,
in the natural gas belt would natu
rally suppose that the Few fuel is a
heavy detriment to the coal trade and
has depressing effect on prices
This is an error. So vast is the coal
trade that the loss of the natural gas
belt as a consumer is hardly appreci-
able in the market. When, therefore,
our people proceed to buy coal they
will find that the prices have not
changed very materially from those
of the good old days before natural
gas competition set in.

Putting 1t Plainly.

In the pending campaign in this
State, says the Miners Journal, a
crisis appears to have been reached
which will render the liquor gues-
tion and its adjuncts the dominant is.
sue heneeforward The organized
conspiracy between the Democratic
leaders and the liquor power to defeat
the Republican party and then over
throw all the barriers erected by that
party against the decentralization of
the liquor traffic has forced that issue.
With its characteristic fearlessness
and fortitude the Republican party ac-
cepts the issue and boldly marches
out to give battle upon it. The ad-
dress just issued by the Republican
State Committee sounds ringing
defiance to the unholy alliance and
fearlessly avows the responsibility
for all the legislation that has inspir-
ed the liquor power to organize and
conspire against the Republican par.
ty. Says this sturdy address:
at (the Republican party) is char
ged with preserving the Sunday laws
which forbid the sale of liquor upon
that day: In answer it accepts the
responsibility 1t is charged with
having passed the High License law
1t just as freely accepts that respon-
sibility. & The Republican
party is charged with having in state
convention and Legislative caucus
ordered the submission to vote of
the people the amendment to prohibit
the sale of liquor and with affirming
a like determination this year. The
charge is true-so fatty true that no
Republican will evade it."
There is no equivocation about
this-no disguise, no cowardly dodg-
ing. Now will the Democratic State
Committee have the honesty and
courage to issue an address as plainly
declaring that the overthrow of these
safe guards to morality and this rec
ognition of the right of the people to
mould their State Constitution is the
object of the alliance of the Democrat
ic party with the liquor power ?
1t will not do so, but instead the
Democratic managers will plot in Sc
cret with the liquor leagues whose
chief boasts that they can command a
quarter of o million of money to de-
bauch the people and defeat the Re-
publican party, to the ultimate end of
enthroning free rum and an European
Sunday upon the ruins of the sautary
restrictive system established and
maintained through Republican infiu,
ence. This is the battle that now
opens before the people of Pennsyl-
vania, and the Republican party is
ready for it.

The Shut Down Begins.

The great shut down movement in
oil was completed at Oil City on
Monday last and went into operation
on Tuesday, Nov. lst, inst.
The general features of the move
ment are: a stoppage of the drill fol
one year; the shutting in for one
year of one-half tie present produc
ton; no glycerine to be used witbir
the same time, and no wells ore to be
cleaned out
For these concessions on part o
the producers the Standard Oil Co
is to set aside 5000. 600 barrels of oil
at 60 cents per barrel, the profits o
which are to be divided among tht
producers who shut in their wells ant
the laboriDg men who may be thrown
out of employment by the shut dowI
or shut in. This all is based on th'
expected rise in oil that the move
ment will soon bring about.
The new Saxonburg field this Co
is said to be the only one not fully
embraced or entirely controlled By
the movement. Strong efforts wer
made by the Association producers
to control it also.
The Reibold 6eld is said to b,
completely in the movement. Al
the big producing firms however il
the country, both Standard and indie
pendent have or will shut in thei
wells, according to their now consum
mated plan to raise the price OF oil.
